Correction: Debian Kodi is built with --enable-gles on armel/armhf/arm64. I have no experience (yet) running Kodi on arm (be it framebuffer or X11), but am quite interested in our official package best possible covering the needs of our users: In case you (or others following along here) figure out some build configuration tuing needed then please do not hesitate to file wishlist bugreports :-) Heck, even if you have only vague dreams like "awww, please get Kodi to work from framebuffer on Vivante-based armhf devices" you might also file a (wishlist!) bugreport about that, to have a well-defined place to collect the details until substantial enough act on it. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
